A DRY AFTERNOON TOMORROW

It’s looking like we may be in the clear prior to tomorrow morning. A pre-frontal trough is now kicking off showers and storms just to the south and west of the Tulsa area, though dryer air is still several hundred miles back to the northwest. This afternoon may still bring some isolated heavy downpours with a few of the stronger thunderstorms, though enlarge, our atmosphere is more stable today than it was yesterday and cloud cover will help us from really heating up and destabilizing.

By the time the actual front meanders through, rainfall may be somewhat scattered in nature. With a little luck, tomorrow afternoon will pleasant with a much drier air mass in place. We should see some good breaks of sun too.

With an impressive Low to our north and east we’ll be a northwest flow pattern heading into the weekend. Thursday afternoon along with Friday morning could bring bouts of precipitation to our area in the form of showers and t-storms. We’re entering a period where we can see overnight complexes race through our area with impressive straight line winds along the leading edge. We’ll be monitoring developments closely.
